Da. Die. B. GREEN :--Dear Sir—l feel it not
only a pleaeu: e, but a duty. to make known to
you and to the public, (if you desire it.) the our
prising effects of the '• Oxygenated Bitters," in
relieving me from that most discouraging dirsor
der, Dyspepsia. I have been afflicted for about
seventeen years with the usual attendant symp
toms, viz: constipation of the bowel, headache,
pain in the chest, flatulence acidity of the stom
ach, and severe nausea; and for months at a time
not the least particle of moisture would appear
on the surface of the cheat or limbs, and most
of the tune I was extremely bilious. I have wed
various remedies, have been strict in my diet,
have been dosed with calomel and emetics day
after day by physicians, but ail to nd geed pur
pose. Hearing of the wonderful effect- of the
"Oxygenated Bitters," in the cure of Dyspepsia,
I procured some as a last resort , have used four
bottles of the medici e, and find the bed symp
toms all removed, find myself once more in the
enjoyment of health. None but the Dyspeptic
sulkier. who hos felt a I the horrors of the dia.
ease, can at all appreciate the value of the medi
cine. i most sincerely hope that alb will make
trial of the medicine. and with me be able to re
joice in the return of health.
